Hitting the Reset Button
With the state of the world as it is, now is the perfect time to hit that reset button. You know, that one that you keep meaning to hit. The one set aside for “maybe tomorrow”, or “some day”. That day is today my friends.
Every day of the past two weeks has been some fashion of a new normal.

Undergoing an Overhaul
Two years ago today, I made one of the biggest decisions of my life - I decided to leave the pagan community I had come to regard as family. I walked away from many familiarities, including my own magic. I carried out only the things I had pledged to my deities, and specifically withdrew into myself so that I could heal.

Dancing with the Goddess
Deity relationships are never the same for anyone. Many times we are the ones to go after and seek out gods and goddesses to work with. Sometimes, though, they come knocking all on their own. When we seek out deity, often we know what we desire to work on, we have some idea of a plan and how to go about getting done what needs doing

Coming Back Around
This time last year, I was sitting at my altar thinking about what I wanted to do in life. I took a hard look inside and started wondering what life would be like if things were different, if I was actually doing the things that brought me joy all of the time. I remembered how much I enjoyed writing, and how it was a useful tool to share the healing messages from the divine.

Reflect, Refresh, Renew
Today marks the dark moon, a perfect time for reflection and observance; it's also a great time to begin new things.

Pending Ordination
With March around the corner, now is the time when my coven starts to focus on Ordinations. It's always a joyous time of year, though it's also the busiest. Between February and March, many of us are lucky to get even 1 day off from having to do a thing. Most of us maintain day jobs, several of us have families, and we all have lots of planning and coordinating around PantheaCon and then Ordination Retreat - not to mention our social lives. So, now that PantheaCon is done and over with, the focus shifts to the next thing.

PantheaCon, the Aftermath
Settling back into the world post-PantheaCon is a strange and mysterious thing. Every year, new things happen; and every year, I never know how to go forth and spread the happiness that fills my heart. This year was filled with ritual and learning, where in years past it was filled more with lecture and discussion. I've experienced so much, and I'm still struggling with the words.

Adventures in the Snow
Last week, I had the pleasure of going on a road trip to the snow with my fellow Huntress sisters. Being located in the Bay Area, snow is not a thing we see unless we specifically go looking for it. Plan we did, and off we went.
